I like that new 1M. Was glad to see they finally made a M version of the 1 series. So they are calling it a 1M?? Not M1??

yah, i was seriously considering the 135i a few years ago to possibly get as my dd. with the issues people were having (and the issue I had with my previous MINI which was partly a BMW-serviced car with annoying problems) i waited and upgraded my hobby car instead (my Z, sold the MINI).

my G's pretty and all still but she can't live forever so in the next 2.5yrs i want to sell the car and get the 135i. she will be 10yrs old. which is i guess nothing vs mr.onzedge's cool datsun.

im not selling the Z for a while.. no way.

Mr. Kenchan,

One never sells a Z -- unless, of course, you find yourself with a 1985 300 ZX 2+2 Automatic. If you do, the do the Z world a favor and push it off a cliff.

QD'ed her and put the cover on. T-storms comin' through.

On yesterday's kenchan, a couple of ricer kids in a work-in-progress CRX pulled up next to me at a light and tried to goad me into a race. I did what was a typical launch for me when I'm at the front of the line and have open road in front of me; Putting as much power down as I can without squealing the tyres and quickly accelerating to the speed limit. The CRX driver dumped the clutch as he was letting off the gas and stalled it at the light.
I never could understand why ricers do the whole womp-womp-womp revving thing while... well, while pulling away from any stopped position.
They caught up to me with a ricer fly-by, hit the brakes hard and rode next to me with their engine bouncing off the rev limiter. I was quite impressed!

M1 is a supercar. It's technically a 1 series m coupe, or 1m.


They finally wrapped up the wonky stuff with the early 1s that stopped me from buying one in the first place, but it looks like they are impossible to find.

So, Kenchan is a name, a noun and a verb. Cool.

GET OFF my Kenchan man!

Can't it be an adjective too. Instead of saying it is a traditional Z car, it is a "Kenchan Z car" may become a possibility.

I saw one in a show room while I was in high school. It was so Kenchan (cool). I walked around it and stared so long one of the salesman said something like "so are you going to take it?" Being young I got a little scared I was doing something wrong, said no, and left.

I took a ride in the stock 1M on a set of slicks with a pro driver and that car is pretty crazy. I couldnt imagine what it would be like w a couple mods.
